'Inside an al Qaeda stronghold in Yemen'
A portion of correspondent Ghaith Abdul-Ahad's report on al Qaeda in Yemen for PBS FRONTLINE:
In the above video, Ghaith visits Jaar, which al Qaeda captured a year ago without resistance from the Yemeni Army--which receives arms, training and intelligence from the United States. An al Qaeda spokesman, Fouad, took Ghaith on a tour of the large town and explained the way they are implementing Sharia, Islamic law. On the desolate streets, Ghaith encountered fighters he believed to be from Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq and Saudi Arabia.
